The bill mandates the Director of the Division of Local Government Services in the Department of Community Affairs to create a grant program aimed at boosting local government efficiency. Local government units can apply for grants to hire management enhancement review consultants for efficiency reviews, with a maximum award of $150,000 for county-based units and $100,000 for municipal-based units. Grant recipients must contribute 25% of the award amount. The Director compiles reports from participating units into a comparative profile, which is posted on the division's website.
